  Holy guacamole! Trivia was bumping last night here at Red Star! There was a whopping total of 11 teams who wanted to participate in the night's festivities. Our highest number to date! A very exciting night indeed!

  There were some intense questions in the rounds. Contestants had to name famous super models in the picture round. One round had a dark academic theme. Kathryn Hahn was the star players had to guess. It WAS Agatha all along! For the "Drinking Round", teams had to draw out Homer Simpson by memory. One team went as far as drawing Homer strangling his son, Bart. Bravo! Round six, patrons had to match fictional Doctors to the TV show or movie that they starred in. And in the final round, players had to list off 10 US cities with a population exceeding over 1 million citizens. 

   Now, for the night's winning teams! Our second to last team was Masles w/ 5 points. Unfortunately they left before they could receive their prize. Sad face! The Droids You're looking for came in second with 29 points. And the winner of both the Drinking Round and the night's game was Too Many Tears (Baby Sloth plus 2 others) with a grand total of 41 points. Kudos everyone!

   I had a fantastic time hosting last night's game! Can't wait for what's in store for next week's game! Hope to see y'all next time! This Brittany, your Quizmaster signing out!

Another splendid night of trivia at Red Star! So much fun and so much entertainment. We got a bunch of rad teams out for Margaritas and to test out their skills. Now lemme give you some of the highlights of the round. 

   Teams had guess the famous folks either named Peter, Paul or Mary. There was a talk show related round. I think i will now refer Connie Chung as "Mommy Povich" thanks to team Gator Nuggies. Y'all are too extra! Fast and Furious franchise star Eva Mendes was the profiled person in the "Guess Who" round. All the answers for "Find the Connection" were all Beatles song titles. The very first "Drinking Round" was a huge hit. Players had to draw out Mickey Mouse by memory. E9 on Draft did what i thought the best version of Mickey and earn themselves a round a slushie Margarita shots. In the final round of the night, contestants had to list off 10 UN states that begin with the letter "N". Now, on to the winners of the night. 

   In third place with 40 points was 2+2=5. Quizzards came in second with 50 points. And the first place winners are still Red Star's reigning champs. It's Baby Sloth earning a grand total 62 points. Props to all the teams who won the night's prizes. 

   It's such an honor to host trivia at such an awesome place. I have regulars and new faces that are always down to play. It's been a month since I became a quizmaster and I'm really feeling comfortable in my role. I wanna thank the contestants who participated. You guys are the ones who make it all worth it.

Wow, last night's trivia was the most fun I ever had. There were some amazing contestants out giving their brains a workout. Everyone was ready to rock and roll!

  The rounds were a bit of a challenge for the players. They had to name TV dramas that won an Emmy. One of the best guesses from that round was Memento: The Series. That cracked me up. Maybe Showtime could make that a reality. The teams had a tough time with the "Riddles and Fiddles" round. Helena Bonham Carter was the subject of "Guess Who". Teams had to guess colours from films titles. And contestants had to list out 10 countries that produce coffee beans. 

  Now for the teams that won! Bad at History got second to last place with  32 points. Baby Sloth returns and received 2nd place with 57 points. A new winner was crowned! The Popes reign supreme w/ a total of 62 points. Let's give all the players a round of applause! <clap, clap, clap>

  I wanna again thank all the contestants who participated. I know Mondays are a pretty rough start for the week but i'm glad everyone came out and played. A great way to complete your Monday. This is Brittany, your Quizmaster sign out!
